Announcing “2019 Festival of Peonies in Bloom”
We are pleased to announce our 2019 “Festival of Peonies in Bloom” when we will be open to the public between May 4-31, from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm, 7 days a week. Come stroll among the peonies, paint en plein air, or pack a picnic lunch.
We feature the largest collection of peonies in the state of North Carolina, including both types of peonies – Herbaceous and Intersectional Itoh. Come and select cut flowers for your home, office, or special events such as weddings, or a select a peony plant for your replanting in your garden at home this fall.
Want to spend a few days amongst these fragrant blooms? Book a stay at our Luxury Riverfront Yurt, perched above the peony beds and the Pigeon River. For more information about our Yurt, click here to visit Airbnb.
Your farm sounds great. We would like to visit sometime. Do you sell plants that can be purchased? I live on Beech Mountain and have a peonie that my mother gave me many years ago and it has been doing well at our store, Freds General Mercantile.
Hello Fred. Nice to meet you. We do sell peony plants and fig trees. Please call Ricardo at the number listed on the website for more information. Thank you.
Hello, Fred. Please visit!
I wonder if well behaved dogs on a leash are allowed at the festival.
Dear Ana. I think so, but please call Ricardo at the number provided on the homepage to be certain. Thank you.
Hi Ana. I’m not sure. I would think so. Please call Suzanne: 828.246.7465 to ask.

what is the price for individual peony to plant? Do you give out planting info and recommendations?
Hello, Pam! Cut flowers cost $3/herbaceous, $5/intersectional. Potted peony plants (for your garden) range from $35-$100/plant. We anticipate peak bloom next weekend! Yes, plants come with planting and care instructions. You’ll come and choose a plant now, then return in the fall (usually October) to pick it up for planting. Thank you for your interest. Note: we only have 19 potted plants left. I’d come soon!

Would like a catalog please. 4908 Walt gay road. Monroe no 28112
Dear Dawn. We don’t have a catalog. We are a family-run farm, but you’re welcome to visit any day this month! We are open 10am-4pm daily. Cheers!
Hello!
If you choose a plant now for planting in the fall, do you require payment now, or when the plant is picked up in the fall, once the healthy plant is seen?
Hello. We require payment at the time of order because we care for the plant until pick-up time. Thank you!
